According to Stephen Leacock, the Lord said “let there be wheat” and Saskatchewan was born. Interesting isn’t it? But aside from being the world’s largest exporter of crops, Saskatchewan has also lots of marvelous places that are worth visiting for. One of these is the Prairie Lily Riverboat Cruise, a tourist attraction in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Cruising with Prairie Lily provides relaxation and will let you see the natural beauty of Meewasin Valley, taste the Saskatchewan’s pride cuisines and enjoying the scenic views while learning some heritage of the city.

The Prairie Lily Riverboat Cruise opens at 10 am to 5 pm. The Prairie Lily is the perfect option for exclusive events, entertaining, meetings, and private functions. As of May 2017, they started welcoming guests to host their corporate or special events. It provides a dockside meeting space that can be added on either regular or exclusive tours; for charter menus, the staffs are willing to offer catering menu for their guests to select. The ship has 700 square feet on the main, interior deck and another 700 on the canopy covered second level. It is equipped with a bar, heating and air conditionings, two washrooms, a serving galley and a forward gangway that can be used to load or unload passengers from the front. They have different kinds of cruises that will surely fit to your dream experience on the cruise and budget. In Sightseeing Cruise you would definitely enjoy the cruise through the heart of Saskatoon on the South of Saskatchewan River. Captain’s Brunch Cruise for Sunday mornings, Dinner cruise to enjoy our very popular and leisurely Chef’s Choice dinner and experience the beauty of our river and riverbank with our house caterer, Chef Kevin from Flavours Catering. Big Sky Sunset Cruise for Friday and Saturday evenings; Tasting and Specialty Cruise for an experience of sailing with a Sommelier, and lastly, The Cruisin’ to Shakespeare which you would enjoy some stage performances of Twelfth Night and Richard III.

The Prairie Lily Riverboat Cruise is my top chosen place in Saskatchewan. My experience was superb and it’s a world-class experience to remember. I tried it once and it was on one of my best friends’ birthday party. I’ve been to some party boats before and Prairie Lily is my most favorite so far. Each view was awesome and it feels more exciting as you see people riding jet skis around you and doing some tricks. Aside from the fun, staffs are very friendly and their service was really perfect. Before our departure, they did some announcements and reminders for safety purposes. They also make sure that everyone is on their best experience and always feels comfortable throughout the cruising. One interesting thing is that the captain socializes to his passengers and my experience with him was a witty one. He suggested the best spot at the cruise where I can have my “#socialmedia-worthy” pictures. Apart from food and staffs, their facilities were very neat and clean, plus factor its fresh lavender fragrance. My friends and I enjoyed the splendid experience in the cruise even though the weather is chilling that day and we’re expecting a sunset, but still it is the best night of our lives that we’ll remember and treasure for the rest of our lives.
